VCTNet PC11BR

[marion]

Question: I'm trying to install the VCTNet PC11BR linux driver, which I have to compile. I need to modify the source and change the Include path, but I don't know where that is in FC3, and searches haven't yielded the correct fruits.

This is the line from the readme:

(4)Makefile
PLEASE SPECIFY INCLUDEPATH CORRECTLY ACCORDING TO YOUR LINUX ENVIRONMENT.
FOR EXAMPLE, " INCLUDEPATH=-I /usr/src/linux-2.4.18-3/include/ " in RedHat7.3.
FOR EXAMPLE, " INCLUDEPATH=-I /usr/src/linux-2.4.18-14/include/ " in RedHat8.0.


I followed the /urs/src scheme, but I ended with /usr/src/redhat and there was no include folder.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I'm guessing no one has used this wireless card with FC3 then?

FC3 does not come with the kernel source just the compiled image. so it sounds like you need to download your kernel source from redhat

[marion]

Ok, that makes sense then. I'll try that, and thank you for the response.

In short, there is a Linux driver available for this card but I can't figure out how to compile it.

The good news is that if you download the .zip file, it has the .inf and .sys files you need, and works great using Ndis Wrapper.

Looks like your driver is for a 2.4 kernel and the FC3 ones are 2.6. Unless you find a version that can compile on 2.6 it looks like you are in for difficulties.
